This Supplement to Aerospace Medicine and Biology (NASA SP-7011) lists280 reports,
articles and other documents announced during May 1974 in Scientific and Technical
Aerospace Reports (STAR) or in Initernational Aerospace Abstracts flA.A). The first issue
of the bibliography was published in July 1964; since that time, monthly supplements have
been issued.
In its subject coverage, Aerospace Medicine and Biology concentrates on the biological,
physiological, psychological, and environmental effects to which man is subjected during
and following simulated or actual flight in the earth's atmosphere or in interplanetary space.
References describing similar effects of biological organisms of lower order are also in-
cluded. Such related topics as sanitary problems, pharmacology, toxicology, safety and sur-
vival, life support systems, exobiology, and personnel factors receive appropriate attention.
In general, emphasis is placed on applied research, but references to fundamental studies and
theoretical principles related to experimental development also qualify for inclusion.
Each entry in the bibliography consists of a bibliographic citation accompanied in most
cases by an abstract. The listing of the entries is arranged in two major sections: IAA
Entries and STAR Entries. in that order. The citations, and abstracts when available, are
reproduced exactly as they appeared originally in IAA or STAR. including the original
accession numbers from the respective announcement journals. This procedure, which
saves time and money, accounts for the slight variation in citation appearances.
Two indexes-subject and personal author-are included.
An annual index will be prepared at the end of the calendar year covering all documents
listed in the 1974 Supplements.

AVAILABILITY OF CITED PUBLICATIONS
IAA ENTRIES (A74-10000 series)
All 'publications abstracted in this Section are available from the Technical Information
Service, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics. Inc. (AIAA). as follows:
Paper copies are available at $5.00 per document up to a maximum of 20 pages. The
charge for each additional page is 25 cents. Microfiche (1) are available at the rate of
$1.00 per microfiche for documents identified by the # symbol following the accession
number. A number of publications, because of their special characteristics, are available
only for reference in the AIAA Technical Information Service Library. Minimum airmail
postage to foreign countries is $1.00. Please refer to the accession number, e.g.. A74-10763.
when requesting publications.
A source from which a publication abstracted in this Section is available to the public is
ordinarily given on the last line of the citation. e.g.. Avail: NTIS. The following are the
most commonly indicated sources (full addresses of these organizations are listed at the
end of this introduction)
Avail: NTIS. Sold by the National Technical Information Service at the price shown in
the citation. If no price is shown in a current STAR citation, it may be ascertained
by referring to Government Reports Announcements or to NTIS. Beginning with
documents announced in Issue 21. 1973, "stocked" reports, such as printed NASA
reports are priced on a step schedule ranging irregularly from $3.00 for a 1-to-25
page report to $11.00 for 576 to 600 pages, plus $2.00 for each additional
100-page increment. Demand print reports (those for which a facsimile reproduction
will be made to fill orders) are priced at $4.00 for the first 20 pages plus 25 cents
for each five pages or portions thereof. These prices are not applied retroactively;
i.e., reports previously announced at a certain price continue to be sold at that
price. If "Avail: NTIS" without a price appeared in the citation of a NASA report
(asterisked) it is sold at $3.00 whether printed copy or facsimile is supplied.
Because of price changes and possible surcharges, it is recommended that for any
document announced in STAR before July 1970, NTIS be queried as to the price.
Document prices are subject to change without notice. See "Avail: SOD" below for
documents available from both the Superintendent of Documents and NTIS.
Microfiche. Microfiche is available from NTIS at a standard price of $1.45
(regardless of age) for those documents identified by the # sign following the
accession number (e.g., N74-10108#) and having an NTIS availability shown in the
citation. Standing orders for microfiche of (1) the full collection of NTIS-available
documents announced in STAR with the # symbol. (2) NASA reports only (ident-
ified by an asterisk (*)), (3) NASA-accessioned non-NASA reports only (for those
who wish to maintain an integrated microfiche file of aerospace documents by the
"N" accession number), or (4) any of these classes within-one or more STAR
categories, also may be placed with NTIS at greatly reduced prices per title (e.g.,
45 cents) over individual requests. Inquiries concerning NTIS Selective Categories
in Microfiche should be addressed to the Subscription Unit, National Technical
Information Service.
Deposit Accounts and Customers Outside U.S. NTIS encourages its customers
to open deposit accounts to facilitate the purchase of its documents now that
prices vary so greatly.
NTIS customers outside the United States are reminded that they should add the
following handling and postage charges to the standard or announced prices:

hard (paper) copy. $2.50 each document; microfiche, $1.50 each document. For
subscribers outside the United States who receive microfiche through the Selective
Categories in Microfiche program, NTIS will add 15 cents for each title shipped.

price if hard copy is requested. NTIS will also fill microfiche requests, at the
standard $1.45 price, for those documents identified by a #symbol.)
